"Celebrate your success and find humor in your failures. Don’t take yourself so seriously. Loosen up and everyone around you will loosen up. Have fun and always show enthusiasm. When all else fails, put on a costume and sing a silly song."
-Sam Walton (founder of Walmart)

10 CrossFit terms you should know!
CrossFit slang, "pigeon", lingo, vocab, acronyms, etc., can get rather confusing, especially if you are new to the sport. I mean, since when did the acronym WOD become a noun and verb? Well hopefully the explanations below help make sense of it all.

Example: "Have you WODed, today?" "No, I'm WODing at the 4pm class!"
RFT - Rounds for time
Example: "5 RFT"
AMRAP - As many rounds/reps as possible
Example: "AMRAP in 10 minutes" (i.e. Today's WOD)
PR - Personal Record
Example: "What's your 'Fran' PR?"
Met-con - Metabolic Conditioning
Example: "What's today's Met-con?"
OHS - Overhead Squat
C&J - Clean & Jerk
DB - Dumbbell (ex. DB Cleans)
KB - Kettle-bell (ex. KB Swings)
